I'm trying to pry away a M&P Shield in 9mm from my father (he buys all the new CCW autos and never carries any of them) - with the extended 8-round magazine it's still easy enough to conceal and it's the only one of the single-stack 9s that I can get a comfortable grip on.

He also has a Shield in .40 but I don't want it.

Do you find the safety to be useable? I thought about ordering a Shield but decided not to because the best thing I heard about the safety was that it's difficult to activate on accident.

Well, the main problem with the Judge is that it was made by Taurus, and that pretty much speaks for itself.

I guess, I have never seen a reason to use a .410 other than to make upland bird hunting even trickier.

I think (my opinion) it's a viable self-defense round at close range. Don't want to go firing off 9mm and .45 in the house when the kids are on the other side of drywall.

If it will penetrate a person enough to matter, it will penetrate two layers of drywall.

#4. Be sure of your target and what's behind it.

So, you're saying that someone getting hit center of mass with .410 at 10 feet or less is the same effect as someone 20 feet or more away on the other side of drywall, insulation, and wall studs? .410 spreads wider than Sara Jay at an NBA player party, fwiw.

I will contend that .410 is much less collateral damage in an enclosed environment vs popular self-defense bullet loads (9mm, .40, .45, etc).

All, just my opinion...I only kill people in 'Call of Duty', and orks in 'Space Marine'.

I don't even have the experience with "Call of Duty", but my limited time working on drywall crews makes me believe what I've read about drywall's inability to stop much of anything.

The point is to end the threat. A .410 isn't up to the task. It looks as if you've become like those you loath. I hope I'm wrong.

I'd like to make one of those Gene Wilder Willy Wonka memes that asks you to tell us how many times you've been shot in the face with .410, but I'm really busy on top of not giving a shit.

I haven't been shot in the face with a .410, but I have been shot with one. Didn't even penetrate the jacket I was wearing. Granted, it wasn't at close range. Just saying that a .410 in a shotgun is a piss poor choice let alone in a short barreled revolver.

.410 revolver would be good if I was hiking in snake country. Otherwise, I'd carry something else.

With the Guv, it's not a problem.

.410 for snakes on the trail.

.45 ACP for niggers rifling through the glove box in your Subaru.

Over penetration is a problem for all calibers given one common factor. All rounds will definately penetrate through walls etc if you MISS your target.

Select a quality hollow point, don't miss your target, and keep an eye on who or what is behind your target.

My preferred Home defense hand gun is a USGI 1911 loaded w/Federal HST +P 230 grain hollow points.
Arms are the only true badge of liberty. The possession of arms is the distinction of the free man from the slave.

I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.
